DIY Monitoring controler from IJ Research | update

After a really long time, I finally got into debugging my monitoring controler from Igor (IJ research).
It didn't work for quite long and I eventually found 2 mistakes:
- wrong power connection... (OK, shame on me, this shouldn't happen)
- some pins of my test VGA cable were shorted to the shield so the power supply was not working anymore. I changed the cable and it's working.
Here a quick'n dirty video
It's moving! and it blinks!

Well I should be cautious with saying this, because it just responds as expected, display, LEDs and buttons. I need to make a custom db25 cable to test the input-output with audio. And then I can say if it's really working and passing audio.

And then I just need my brother in law to CNC a nice case for this one and integrate it in my setup.
